Update: Resolution will take place early next week. You will not need to complete the chapter again.
Chadd "Celestalon" Nervigg came out to play on reddit to keep everyone in the loop on the legendary quest bug that some players have encountered.
For those not in the know, the Legendary Quest was not properly handed out to all players when logging in, so when they completed the adventure and then logged back into Hearthstone, it is no longer possible to earn credit for the quest. Thankfully, this is only a minor frustration and doesn't break anything else, so once a resolution is pushed out, you'll be able to open those sweet packs.
We don't know when the issue will be resolved at this time, but we should see another update from Blizzard once the fix goes out.
Quote From HS_Celestalon We're working on a fix for this, sorry about that. Stay tuned!
Update - 2:45 PM Eastern June 18
Quote From Blizz_Kauza Thank you to everyone who reported issues with completing the Legendary Quest for the new adventure. For players who completed the adventure shortly after it was released, it’s possible that you didn’t yet have the Legendary Quest and won’t be able to complete it with repeated playthroughs. We’re working on a fix that will check for adventure completion and whether you’ve gotten your rewards and grant quest completion to anyone who didn’t receive it. You will not need to complete the adventure again as long as you have completed it once. We’re likely going to get this fix out early next week.

Thanks for the heads up Flux :)
The old Dungeon Run, for me, was way, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better.
I really liked the new adventure. I liked that they were going for a theatrical tale.
Didn't have this problem because I didn't dive into the adventure immediately. Three boring single-rare packs, but I'm not complaining.
I'm more into getting the card back anyway, but not in a huge rush.
To me, this has been better than GA, and I even payed for that one.
GA?
Galakrond's Awakening.
totally
I just know I can't wait to finish the last two fights of the adventure so I don't have to listen to "poetry-beat Illidan" anymore.
I've had to play the first chapter 3 times due to having 3 accounts (NA, EU, ASIA).
I wouldn't mind the poetry if it was skippable and you could click the "go" button etc before it's read in its entirety. In the end I muted the game and just waited.
Still, it's great to have some free content so a minor complaint.
Yeah no major complaints since it was free, it's just Illidan is such a cool character with some amazing lore, having him speaking like he was reading "'twas the night before Christmas" is really out of character. It doesn't ruin Illidan, but this is easily the worst thing Illidan has ever been a part of.
I ma hesitant to complete the remainder of the adventure. I did what I needed to get the reward, but I'm wondering if Blizzard will try to "make up" for frustrations some players are experiencing by giving other quests to complete other parts of the adventure.
Then again, this was "free" content so who knows...
If they do, it would likely still reward you as soon as you got the added quest because you will have already met the goal. I mean, that’s what’s going to happen to those who haven’t gotten the quest yet, or got it after finishing chapter 1.
However, in the past when giving out freebies to say sorry about something, they are usually just gifted packs with no requirement to complete.
Overall, I was a bit underwhelmed with the adventure. But hey, it was free!
I would say it's the same as Galakrond's awakening but for only 1 side (Either the LoE or Evil league)
I was frustratingly surprised at how challenging some of the bosses are (namely Mother Shahraz) but overall, considering this is free content, they did a good job.
Yeah, only a couple got frustrating and I started to hit Restart on those if my opening hand or the first three turns or so weren’t ideal. Also I made the mistake of trying to control the board on the final fight thinking it was going to be a long match. Started to think it was an un-winnable match.
that what they respond to me today:
"Heya! Sorry to hear you've been having trouble with the quest Happy Felfire Festival. We've identified some issues with the quest completing properly, from your description it sounds like that's what's happening here. The Developers are currently working on getting it fixed, so hopefully it'll be working again soon. The Support Team don't have any way to complete the quest or advance its progress I'm afraid, so it'll be a case of waiting for the fix to be applied. We'll have that sorted as soon as possible. Thanks for your understanding, and apologies again for the inconvenience."
Good job!
